Rohit Sharma's backing helped Ashwin's selection

NEW DELHI: Midway through the Asia Cup in UAE in 2018, Ravindra Jadeja made a comeback into the Indian white-ball team under stand-in captain Rohit Sharma. “It has been 480 days since I played, so I will always remember this,” Jadeja had announced after the match. Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin were deemed ineffective in white-ball cricket after the Champions Trophy final in 2017. It has taken four and a half years for Ashwin to rejoin Jadeja in the limitedovers setup. The off-spinner will also play in the UAE, at the T20 World Cup. This time too, it is Rohit Sharma who has had a role to play, TOI has learnt. Rohit, it is understood, has played a major part in the selection of the team for the T20 World Cup. The board and selectors had sought Rohit’s opinion before the selection meeting and he was insistent on bringing Ashwin back into the scheme of things. Captain Virat Kohli too was on the same page when the idea was floated during the meeting.
